OVERVIEW

 

Please note: This product is discontinued. You can find high-end organ sounds in other NI products such as KONTAKT 4 and the '57 Drawbar Organ.

 

The best of both worlds

The B4 combines the classic and robust tonewheel organ and rotating speaker sound with the convenience of software. The original B3 organ set many standards with its beefy sound and unique interface. This instrument spans all genres – from R&B to Jazz, Rock, House to Gospel – and is a valuable tool for any player or producer. The Native Instrument B4 honors this standard, and provides a software that maintains the classic look, lush tone, and famous presets of the original.

 

Authentic Software

The B4 software organ broke new ground when it was released in 2000 and was an instant success. Its expressiveness and immediate playability continues to amaze even the most experienced organ players. The B4 II raises the bar considerably, generating a much wider sonic range and a far richer, even more authentic sound.

 

Attention To Detail

From the drawbars, the vibrato and chorus to the tube distortion and rotary speakers, the B4 II delivers the sound of the original in incredible detail. The cross-talk between the tonewheels is adjustable and 11 additional tonewheel sets are also included: 'Cosmetically age' the B4 II or transform it into a Farfisa, a Vox Continental or an Indian Harmonium.
A tube amplifier and a selection of classic speaker cabinets offer you greater freedom of expression. Spring and studio reverb modules lend the sound more depth and atmosphere. From silky soft to relentlessly rockin', the sound is stunningly precise and more versatile than ever before.

The B4 II is a rounded, enthralling and easy-to-use software organ that instantly delights– start playing and you won't stop.
